High-sensitivity observations of solar flare decimeter radiation
A new acousto-optic radio spectrometer has observed the 1 – 2 GHz radio emission of solar flares with unprecedented sensitivity. The number of detected decimeter type III bursts is greatly enhanced compared to observations by conventional spectrometers observing only one frequency at the time. The observations indicate a large number of electron beams propagating in dense plasmas. For the first...
متن کاملThe EVE Doppler Sensitivity and Flare Observations
The Extreme-ultraviolet Variability Experiment (EVE; see Woods et al. 2009) obtains continuous EUV spectra of the Sun viewed as a star. Its primary objective is the characterization of solar spectral irradiance, but its sensitivity and stability make it extremely interesting for observations of variability on time scales down to the limit imposed by its basic 10 s sample interval. In this paper...
متن کاملSolar Flare Electron Acceleration: Comparing Theories and Observations
A popular scenario for electron acceleration in solar flares is transit-time damping of low-frequency MHD waves excited by reconnection and its outflows. The scenario requires several processes in sequence to yield energetic electrons of the observed large number. Until now there was very little evidence for this scenario, as it is even not clear where the flare energy is released. RHESSI measu...
متن کاملFlare Observations.
Solar flares are observed at all wavelengths from decameter radio waves to gamma-rays at 100 MeV. This review focuses on recent observations in EUV, soft and hard X-rays, white light, and radio waves. Space missions such as RHESSI, Yohkoh, TRACE, and SOHO have enlarged widely the observational base. They have revealed a number of surprises: Coronal sources appear before the hard X-ray emission ...
متن کاملPlasma radiation of power-law electrons in magnetic loops: application to solar decimeter-wave continua
It is shown that flare-produced fast electrons with a power-law energy distribution trapped in magnetic loops are capable to produce plasma waves at the upper hybrid frequency due to a loss-cone instability. Conditions for instability are obtained in dependence of the parameters of the power-law distribution and the magnetic-loop parameters. The growth rate of the plasma waves has been calculat...
